I am a project scientist working for Satya on Diamond, a collaboration between Intel Research Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Pittsburgh, and University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. In August 2003, the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon granted me a Masters in Human-Computer Interaction. Before that, I earned a Bachelor's of Science degree in computer science and psychology in the Minds and Machines program at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. |

Starting in October 2002, and continuing until the installation
in April 2003, I implemented the software necessary for the
interactive art piece titled Echo & Narcissus
.
The piece was designed by CFA masters student Anat Pollack, as part of her final masters thesis. For me, this project was an exercise in real time image manipulation, OpenGL, QuickTime, and Mac OS X programming (in Carbon, Cocoa, and BSD). More generally, it was a piece reflecting ideas about memory, time, and self-reflection. I was quite happy with the result (and so was Anat!).
The art piece is interactive: taking video input from onlookers, merging it into its own collective identity, and displaying these images (past and present) as if from its own memories. That being true, it is quite difficult to convey the full effect of the piece on a web site. But for a sample of the output, please refer to this composite output movie.

various works based on Escape, including:
